IMPact’s mission

Sustainable development is the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Brundtland Commission - 1987

IMPact is an asset management company specialising in listed impact investing strategies, offering investment solutions that combine financial performance and impact measurement.

IMPact aims to generate a net positive impact for people and the environment through innovative investment strategies that measure the net impact generated by investments and their contribution to the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement.

The 17 SDGs represent the core element of the UN 2030 Agenda and identify universally recognised priority goals to achieve the transition to a more equitable and environmentally sustainable society.

IMPact’s mission is to contribute to allocating capital to businesses that can generate a net positive impact for people and the environment.

Only what can be measured can be managed. For this reason, measuring the net impact generated by investments and their alignment with the SDGs and the Paris Agreement are the key elements that make IMPact’s investment management approach highly innovative.

The integration of net impact analysis into investment strategies is set to become increasingly relevant in identifying the companies best positioned to successfully exploit the major opportunities arising from the transition to a model of economic development that is socially equitable and compatible with the ecological boundaries of the planet.

We believe that now it is the time to re-imagine capitalism, helping promote investment strategies aimed at generating prosperity not only for present but also for future generations.

Listed impact investing

Impact investments are investments made with the intention to generate positive, measurable social and environmental impact alongside a financial return.

Listed impact investing makes it possible to generate a positive impact for people and the planet on a scale significantly larger than the one that can be achieved on unlisted markets.

In practice, the management of listed impact investing products requires a shift from a two-dimensional investment process, focused on optimising the risk-return profile of portfolios, to a three-dimensional investment process, focused on optimising the risk-return-impact profile of managed investment products.

Practices for the systematic adoption of impact investing strategies on listed financial markets are in their early stages of development and IMPact aims to advance and promote them in the Italian asset management industry.
